IELTS 30th June 2018 - Preparations - Answer Comparison - Result Discussion

[special3220]

I know that everyone here is saying that GT Reading 37 TFNG answer was False. The question was something like black pepper are collected first or something. As far as I remember black pepper were collected when they were still young and green. Green pepper were collected when they are unripe. Green and unripe are not the same and I think unripe condition means slightly mature but still yet to fully ripe.

Another thing is I have always found TFNG to follow the question sequences. The thing about green peppers were mentioned after the second question. I dont see any reason for the TFNG to break the sequence.

Anyway I guess we all will find out when we receive the result.

Can you please share the answers to the map?

 

[Iala]

Wasn't the answer to the employers question, structure instead if introductions?

 

[SithLord]

Even I did write D B I H in the maps . D and B are for sure correct. I'm just not sure about I and H . I have written ' I ' for Gym - while coming down from north to south in the Long Road , just below where the intersection of 2 roads happen.

and the last one as 'H' , across the other side of the intersection of roads - Running Track.

Can anyone confirm if answers of 11. D 12. B 13. I 14. H are correct or did I mis hear something for 13th and 14th Question of the Map.
For sure the answers are I and H only but not sure 13th and 14th respectively or 14th and 13th respectively.

I think B, I and H are correct. I got those 3 too and lot of others too. However, not sure whether 11 is D or G. I and a few others got it as G since it was right next to the track. We will just have to wait and see.

 

[SithLord]

Sorry guys please lift my spirits I answered T/F/NG instead of true false and not given and just read on another thread that it might be marked as wronganyone has previous experience on this on their Ielts test?

T/F/NG are accepted buddy

So did you have 2 True's in that segment? Because the next question was definitely True

 

[dearmilkyway]

But,I think how to store differently they’ve not mentioned so NG

38- NG - Because there was no ordering in the paragraph. It was telling unripe for black pepper and MOST unripe for green pepper. MOST was not used to show an order in that sentence, it was used to tell MORE COMMONLY it is picked when it is unripe.

Besides, i checked through the web.There is no picking time difference between green and black peppers.Black peppercorns are green peppercorns that have been cooked in hot water and then spread out in the sun to dry.

39- TRUE

40- F - I checked that sentence triple times. It was telling ALL needs to be stored in cool condition.
It means ALL of them should be stored in the same way. So it was given. It should not be NG.
Question was telling "They are stored in different conditions." But it is not correct, they ALL needs to be stored in cool condition. So the answer is F.

The question was if all can be stored in the same container not condition

 

[dearmilkyway]

The question was if all can be stored in the same container not condition

Does not matter whether it is "condition" or "container". The meaning does not change.

 

[Preethipulla]

In Section 2 , Part 2 - Does anyone remember if we had A- I or A- H ? I knew we had 6 questions there , but did we have 8 options or 9 ?

 

[Babukumar]

It was something like cost can be saved by changing the _____ of the departments. Now outsourcing sure doesn't fit here as changing is already there so 2 ing verbs don't go.

For size, I don't remember hearing that correctly. I rather wrote organisation based on my gut. But ya it was not straight fwd

yes its true . outsourcing can't fit here. I was sure to write that, but it didn't fit. I missed it. So to just fill it up i wrote space. Because i guessed 38 n 39 were strategies and stages. so something would start in "s" .

 

[Sameeh87]

Do anyone remember the question regarding cloves used for pain reduction?
I missed that one and then guessed.

 

[Sameeh87]

I answered for the last three reading questions as True, True, NG. I checked the relevant parts several times and thus quite confident that I gave the right answers.
